wna, Baking Powder shall we useg

This plain question comes home to
every hOuSekeeper. We all desire pure
and wholesome food, and this cannot
be had with the use of impure or pOls.
onous baking powder. There can be
no longer question that all the cheap
er, lower grade of baking powders con,
tain either alum, lime or phosphate
acid. AS 10th as we may be to admit 50
much against what may have been
some of our household gods, there can
be no gainsaying the unanimous testi,
mOny of the official chemists. indeed,
analysis seem to find no baking powder
entirely free from some one of these
objectionable ingredients except the
Royal, and that they report as chemic.
ally pure. We find some Of the baking
powders advertised as pure, to contain
under the tests of ProfS. Chandler,
Habirshaw and Others nearly twelve
per cent. of lime, while others are made
from alum with no cream of tartar
This we presume accounts for their
lack of leayening power as sometimes
complained of by the cook, and for the
bitter taste found in the biscuits so
frequently complained of by ourselves.
But aside from the inferiority of the
work done by these powders, the physl.
OlOgiSts assure us that lime and alum

ties as this are injurious. They are not

mixing or bHkiug. They 60 with the
bread therefore into the stomach, where
their physiological effects are indiges
ton, dyspepsia, or worse evils
The question naturally arises, why do
| these cheap baking powder makers use
these thingsF Alum Is three cents
pound, lime still cheaper, while cream
of tartar costs thirty-hye or forty. The
reasons for the chemical purity of the
Royal Baking Powder. were recently
given III the New York Times In an In
te .esting description Of o new method
for refining arg0ls, or crude cream of
tartar. II seems that it is only by this
process that cream of tartar can BE-
freed from the lime natural to II and
rendered chemically pure; that the pat.
ents and plant for this cost the Royal
Baking Powder Company about half u
million dollars, and that they maintain
exclusive control of the rights.
Prof. McMurtie, late chemist of the
Department of Agriculture at Wash
llBluIi, ~. u, III lllc lACtlCSIc VI VOIl-
merce, made an examination of this
process, and reported upon the results
attained in the refined cream of tartar.
The following extract from his report
would seem to answer the question re-
peated ut the head of this article, and
which is so frequently prOpounded by
the hOusekeeper.
IL have examined the cream Of tartar
used by the Royal Baking Powder Com.
pany in the manufacture of their bak.
ing powder, and find 1t to be perfectly
pure, and free from lime in any form
The chemical tests to which have sub.

How prejudice stiles. conscience. \
Republican remarked the other day
that he believed with the Democratic
party OIL the tariff question.
On being asked why he did not act
with the Democracy, he turned up his
delicate nose in disgust aud with toss
of his lofty head, declared he, never
could act with such a party.
This man, educated and developed in
the narrow Republican rut, imagines
himself altogether too nice to act with
the Democrats. Well, he probably Is
too nice for us. lie would not feel at
home. He had better therefore, con
